The first series of Leonardo began airing on the 11th April 2011, premiering as a double bill on the CBBC Network. Made by Kindle Entertainment, the series starred Jonathan Bailey and featured Alistair McGowan as Piero de Medici, the main antagonist.
Plot
An exciting action-packed new 13 episode series full of mystery, adventure and an unfolding love story, which steps back in time 500 years. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of 15th-century Florence, Leonardo is far from a typical period drama. It's fast-paced with modern music and language, and a fashion sense that is more high street than high culture.
At the heart of the group is the young Leonardo da Vinci (Leo). Working as an apprentice, he's not just a genius; he's an unstoppable, free-thinking creative force who's always 10 steps ahead of the rest.
